The SIGGRAPH series is here. You have cast your votes, now I’m publishing four short videos (and support material) on the papers you have found most interesting. I’ll publish this videos bi-weekly. The first one is on the paper ‘Fast and Deep Deformation Approximations’ by Bailey et al. Hope you …
In the first installment of the SIGGRAPH Series, I have shown you how the FDDA model works. Now it is time for you to implement it yourself in Maya. 3D animated characters in feature films use sophisticated rigs with complex deformations that can be computationally intensive. The authors of the …
In short Neural Networks can learn patterns from data. That lets you program tasks that are easy for a person/expert to do but are hard for such people to explain how they’ve done it. Like, face recognition, for example. What good are they for 3D animation?
